About The Instructor
Meg Macintyre
I believe in questioning what I learn, instead of accepting things as fact.
I believe in testing applications instead of assuming they work as promised.
I believe in continuous learning and continuous improvement.
I believe that the applications commonly used by Professional Photo Organizers and Photo Managers are inadequate for organizing digital photo and video collections accurately, thoroughly, and efficiently. Preserving a client’s story—their legacy—requires expert knowledge of metadata. But to understand, view, and work with metadata, you need to use applications that make it possible to search, sort, and filter many different metadata fields.
You can do a better job—and do it faster! I’ll teach you how!
I rely on Duplicate Cleaner Pro 5 and Directory Opus. Both are for PC Only. My courses will focus on those applications.
I’m not Pro-PC or Anti-Mac. I test applications extensively and use the ones that perform best. They happen to be for PC.
I have been working with the developers at Duplicate Cleaner Pro since 2021, and my collaboration with them has led to many changes and improvement.
Directory Opus is the dark horse of file management software and can display hundreds of different metadata fields for photos and videos-and any other type of file.
